More seriously, I will likely say a bit about CLI, mostly that it can
sometimes get to things better the GUI tools, and also that it's far
more capable than even the most recent Windows' equivalent.

But I'm aiming at newcomers, so I'll not be saying too much about it.

Hmm ... I think I will try to mention the 'magic' file ID system versus
file extensions, though.  That often trips people up.
